HK 15 Km Challenge 2007 - 07/1/28


Just having completed the captioned race in 1 hr 18 mins+ in the cold weather in the morning on 2007/1/28.

Despite the completion time was not very fast, it was already my personal best in the same route.

I completed the race in 1 hr 23 mins last year.

The race was well organized by HKAAA and sponsored by Kamachi. The souvenir tee was nice in design and was probably my first Kamachi product so far.

China Coast Half Marathon 2007 - 07/1/21


Completed my 2nd China Coast Half Marathon in 1 hr 53 mins+. Despite the completing time was not fast enough, it's my PB in CCM already.

I completed my 1st half marathon of CCM in 2 hrs 3 mins in 2004.

I guess I had not conducted adequate warm up and inadequate sleep (2.5 hrs) leading me to suffer from painful right bottom muscle during the longest downslope section. I was forced to slow down while other runners kept passing me.

It's a nice run anyway.

Perskindol Shatin 10 Km 2007 - 07/1/14


Just completed the captioned race in 47 mins + in the morning today.

The cooler temperature making the race quite enjoyable, despite the smog was still serious.

I began to feel hungry at 7 Km and sped up to the finishing point afterward.

A young runner failed to take over me in the last 10 metres before the finishing line.

A nice race organisied by Marathon Pro (compared with the chaotic Tsuen Wan New Year Run this run was more perfect).

The release of the result was so efficient. I ranked 221 among 715 finishing runners.

Mizuno Hong Kong Half Marathon 2007 - 2007/1/7


Just completed the Mizuno Half Marathon in Tai Mei Tuk in the morning on 2007/1/7.

The temperature was so cold that I wore long sleeves running tee with a cotton gloves.

My completion time was 1 hr 47 mins which was PB for both HM or Mizuno HM.

The race was well organized and I enjoyed it very much. Despite the big logo on the Mizuno souvenir tee is too cute.

Nice race held by HKAAA.
